"The service by the movers themselves was satisfactory. I do however take issue with the fact that I was charged an additional 10% service charge after I purchased the big deal. The only time that the service charge was brought up was when I called to scheduled the appointment and after I had already purchased the big deal through Angie's List. There was no mention of this charge anywhere in the fine print or details of the deal. I called to try to talk to someone about this extra surcharge that they call "wear and tear of their trucks" and was transferred to a gentleman named Charles (I am assuming he is the owner). He immediately launched into a tirade about customers doing this to him all the time and when I tried to explain that when I purchased the deal there were no disclaimers about this extra charge, he lost it. I then asked, since I didn't use the entire time (3hrs) that I paid for if that service charge could be waived. (After all he is still ahead in the money game) - He then became extremely belligerent, rude and yelled at me that he was sick and tired of customers doing this to him and then refused to waive the fee. Since I was not at home my daughter was forced to pay the fee in cash before they would leave. It's been a long time since I dealt with a company representative that just was so totally unreasonable and treated their customer (ex-customer now) in such a manner. Wow - it's a shame too because everyone else I dealt with were polite and respectful... He needs to take some lessons from his employees!
UPDATE TO THE RESPONSE BY COMPANY: Yes, you told me about the extra charge but AFTER I had already paid for the service - that is my complaint. Evidently by your reaction there have been many other customers that have mentioned this same complaint to you- seems as if that surcharge is problematic for your company, might want to rethink how you approach that cost. You need to go back and read the emails you send out, NO WHERE does it state anything about an extra 10% surcharge, it only lists the charges if we go over the 3 hours. This was even verified by Angie's List themselves. Telling my daughter about the extra charge doesn't hold much weight as she didn't know anything about the details, I was the one that ordered the service plus Brandon did not say anything about it until it was time to collect it. Your business certainly didn't lose any money, as a matter of fact, since I only used 2 hours of the 3 that I paid for, you should have been a little ahead. You made a comment to Angie's List that I got a good deal- indicating that I should be grateful for the great deal you provided me. Yes, it was a good deal but you are the one that put the deal on Angie's List in the first place with the price - So if you think that terrific "Big Deal" was a loss to your business, I suggest you don't put it on there again. As far as being unhappy with the last moving company - you're trying to make it sound as if I am an unhappy customer anyway just by bringing that up in this conversation - far from it. They damaged some of the furniture - you would be not very happy either if someone damaged your property. So that has nothing to do with this issue. In the future make sure you disclose everything before someone purchases your service and you'll find you won't have customers "doing this all the time to you"..... I certainly have learned a valuable lesson as well !!"

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.
On average, it takes one to four hours for a professional to install a garbage disposal. This includes removing the old unit, taking necessary measurements for positioning, removing and fitting new pipes, and installing the brand-new disposal system. If there are unforeseen issues, such as accessibility concerns, the process takes longer.
Your garbage disposal is not draining because it might have a clog due to food waste, a foreign object, grease, oil, fat, or it may have a broken motor. When water doesn't flush out of the disposal, that's a key sign that your disposal has a clog or needs repair.
The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.
As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.
